Have you been paying much attention to the 2010 FIBA World Championship? We venture to guess probably not since games are played in the early afternoon most times.
It's probably even less interesting because Team USA doesn't feature the likes of Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwight Howard or basically any of ...

You know, I was really enjoying a pretty quiet beginning of August. Should've known Brett Favre was fixing to ruin that.
You see, I'm a Packers fan. Always have been. As a result, I've morphed into something of the Brett Favre expert on this site. Truth be told, Favre was my ...

Really, is there more that needs to be said?
Patrick Kane's bad angle wrist shot at 4:06 of overtime beat Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Michael Leighton five hole (big shock there) and the Chicago Blackhawks won their first Stanley Cup since 1961 on Wednesday.
Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews won the Conn Smythe Trophy ...

OK, listen, I know there are a lot of people out there that don't think fishing is a sport. I'm one of them.
Then again, we can't get past the truth that fishing stories end up in the sports section and the Bassmaster Classic is televised on ESPN with guys holding ...

So that's what it looks like when the Chicago Blackhawks are playing near their best, eh?
Sunday's 7-4 beat down of the Philadelphia Flyers in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals should be a stern reminder of what one of the league's best offenses looks like when it's clicking on ...

So today I was perusing the news when I came across an interesting thing: Some baseball expansion team named the Baltimore Orioles have fired their manager.
Honestly, it seems kind of soon to can your manager when it's your first year of existence. Surely he deserved some more time to grow ...

Upon reflection, we're still pretty pumped about the Chicago Blackhawks making their way into the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 1992.
Not only did they do it for the first time in a good while, they did it in impressive fashion with a sweep of the San Jose ...

First let me start by saying Doug Collins will be missed at the TNT announcer's table during NBA games.
That said, the Philadelphia 76ers have made a strong, safe choice for their new head coach. The 58-year old Collins is kind of like what John Madden used to be -- a ...

Do you know whether Brett Favre is coming back to the Minnesota Vikings for one more year?
Let me go ahead and answer. No, you don't. Nobody has any idea, probably not even Favre himself. Will he be able to put another season-ending interception (that a way Tracy Porter!) behind him? ...

By now you know the news: The Montreal Canadiens pulled off their second upset of epic proportions in the Stanley Cup playoffs Wednesday by toppling Pittsburgh, 5-2, in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.
